Megabits per second is specific to the number of bits, not the number of bytes. A megabit (Mb) is equal to 1,000,000 bits (decimal) or 1,048,576 bits (binary). It is one-eighth the size of a megabyte. In other words, 1 MB equals 8 Mb. The megabit is generally used as a m...

The research topic of mobility trajectory data generation attracts sustained attention in recent years, and many impressive models or methods have been proposed. Some of these transform the generation problem as predicting the origin–destination matrix with spatial interaction theory (Roy and Thill2003;...
Ramakrishnan:The aging clock does run backward, every generation. Although a child is born from the cells of adult parents, the child still starts at age zero. A child born to a woman who’s 40 years old is not 20 years older than a child born to a 20-year-old; they’re both star...
